Dreams…

What are you dreams? Do you have dreams? Are you living your dream??

You know I don’t think I have a “dream” anymore…

Growing up, anything that I wanted to do or accomplish in the future was always laughed at or not taken seriously by family nad friends because it was THEY thought I should be doing.  So much so, that I started to think that nothing I do will ever be good enough…so I stopped dreaming.  Even now, those same family members and friends continue to discourage the aspirations I have.

Here I am, on the verge of turning 30 and I have people around me who encourage the natural ME (finally) but I feel stuck and without direction.  It seems like every one around me is working towards or living a dream, THEIR dream.

I mean, I’ve been defeated for so long…why try anymore?

*le sigh*…until next time…

    I dream of happiness — of the day I’m completely comfortable in my skin.
    I was asked by a guy recently “what are you doing to prepare yourself?”. I was like “for what?” He said “the next chapter”. Got me to thinking. I don’t know what’s in the next chapter, but I want to be ready. I want to be better. That’s what I’m working on and that’s how I think I’ll achieve my dream.
